If momentum and mass is given how to find speed?

Momentum = mass x speed so speed = momentum/mass or V=P/m


How do you find momentum with mass and speed?

p = mvwhere p is momentum , m is mass and v is velocity


How do you find the mass if you have the momentum?

Momentum alone cannot find the mass of an object as momentum is given by p = mv. To find mass m = p/v , velocity is also required.


A scooter is moving with a speed of 18 ms. Its mass is 20 kg. What is the magnitude of its momentum?

Momentum is just mass times velocity. We assume that given that you can do the arithmetic.


What is Mass times distance divided by time?

Momentum. Distance divided by time is speed. Mass times speed is momentum.


When the mass of a moving object is doubled and its speed remains the same its momentum?

If the mass is doubled,speed should be halved to conserve momentum.


How is speed related to momentum?

Very, very basically, momentum is a combination of speed and mass of the object.


Are momentum and speed the same thing?

NO .Momentum has some potential to do work where as speed is only the rate of action or travel. For example if a car is switched off while speeeding itwill still continue to run for some time due to momentum. Speed by itself has no energy for doing work Momentum is in fact defined as mass x velocity, and will be conserved in an elastic collision.


What is the momentum of someone running at the speed of 4 ms?

Momentum is mass times velocity. What is the mass of someone?


If an electron and a proton have the same momentum which has the higher speed?

The electron, because it has much less mass than the proton and momentum is the product of mass and speed.


What is the equasion used to determine the momentum of an object?

Momentum = (mass) multiplied by (speed)


What is an object's mass multiplied by its velocity?

mass x velocity = momentum. (velocity = speed with a direction)
